Now on to the card I have to share with you today.   I created a pocket tag card.   I am using the newly released Simple Things set along with the new custom Clover die. I am also combining these new sets with a few past release favorites.  For the textured background I am using ODBD Exclusive Vintage Border Embossing Plate.  I am also using the Vintage Border background stamp lightly stamped over the tag  along with the script image from Randi's Song stamp set to create a soft vintage collage feel. I am using ODBD Exclusive Tag die.    I am using Spellbinder's Book Pages Two.  I cut out all the frames and the pocket.  I stamped the new clover image colored with copics and die cut.  I stamped the quote and vintage collaged it up a bit.  I added some sparkle, a few gold pearls, and topped it all off with some gold metallic memory thread. This quick and easy pocket card was made possible using Score-Tape and Scotch ATG adhesive.


 As always thanks so much for stopping by!  Your next stop on the hop will be Gemiel's blog!  Happy Hopping and have a Blessed day!
